You need leverage, get the biggest spanner you can find and if necessary add a pipe or something on the end for more. More people to help too. Where abouts are you from/do you ride? I could probably get it off.

Yeah best bet is to try two people's weight when you're turning it, I had to do that when I replaced my cassette.

Thing that always works for me is just adding a huge pipe to the spanner as Dave said. The added leverage means that you can pretty much just touch the end of the pipe and the cassette will come undone.
